We buried his ashes yesterday;
 
the sunlit sky turned stony grey;
 
emotional restraint gave way. 
 
 


Writing Prompt
Write a short poem in not more than fifteen words. Give your best. It can be the sweetest or the most heartbreaking.

Author Notes
Trying so hard to be brave, not to display overt grief, proved beyond anyone of us. It felt like release, relief.
